That was a long run. I forgot what it was like to run for almost three hours. I felt really stiff for the first two miles, but after warming up I felt great. The weather was beautiful this morning before the clouds came in. I did three loops, 2 eight mile loops and one seven mile. It definitely felt long when I made the turn after sixteen and still had seven to go. But the marathon is longer still, so a long run like this is good every once in while. I think this was the longest training run I've ever done, and I'll probably only do one more this long in this cycle. The last seven were easily down under 7 minute pace and the total time was @ 2:46.
Total for the week: 70 (Not bad for a six day week!)
for the year: 142
